Q: What are some of the features included in issue #3?

A: The most significant feature of Issue 3 is a world changing event: the 5th Column has been overthrown by the Council. An internal coup spread onto the streets of Paragon City and introduced players to a new foe, the Nictus. These alien creatures aided the Council members in their bid to take over the 5th Column.

This story ties together all the new gameplay features in Issue 3. These include:

- a new zone, Striga Isle, that serves as a base for the Council

- new villains, the Council

- new Archetypes: Peacebringers and Warshades. Players can take the role of the extraterrestrials making their first appearance in Paragon City

- new missions and Task Forces that pit heroes against the might of the newly born Council

- a mission difficulty slider Heroes can brag about their abilities to the criminal Underworld to face harder foes in missions.

- Ancillary Powers Players get to flesh out their high level characters with some additional powers.
